Billionaire Elon Musk has been spotted marking the first day of Lent by walking around town with an ash swastika in the middle of his forehead. 

The Telsa CEO seemed cheerful as he exited the local church on Ash Wednesday, though he did get some funny looks from passers-by after seeing his forehead adorned with the Nazi-associated symbol. 

“I didn’t really want the cross,” Musk told us. “The swastika looks way cooler, don’t you think?

“Some people have been calling me a Nazi again. That’s just completely far-fetched. It’s a Roman symbol, or you know, whatever gets me off the hook. 

“The priest said I wasn’t allowed to touch the Bible after what happened at Notre-Dame. They say the official cause was faulty electrics, but it was actually the Bible bursting into flames. He was happy to put the swastika on my forehead, though. All it took was a $100 million donation.

“What have I given up? My morals, my reputation, my dignity, my stock prices. Oh, you mean what have I given up for Lent? The same thing as every year, I’ve given up on looking after my kids. My other ones, not the one I carry around like a handbag.

“Donald is gonna be so pumped to see my forehead. It’s usually up his ass, so I’m not quite sure how the logistics are going to work.”
